Diesel owners that add 2T oil to fuel

[radz15]

Napansin ko lang. Nung tinigil ko gumamit ng 2T after 4 full tank ko napansin unti unti lumalakas yung Fuel consumption ko. Usually kasi pag half tank nasa 230-250km yung mileage ko nung d nako gumagamit ko 2T naging 170-200km nalang same route/traffic/driving habit. Nagtataka ko bat biglang lumakas yung consumption ko kaya bigla ko uli naisip na nagyan ng 2T. Surprisingly nag improve yung FC ko. Ngayon half tank na mula nung nagpa full tank ako w/ 2T at nasa 280km yung mileage ko. Oberbahan ko uli next pa full tank ko maging consistent yung FC ko w/ 2T. 2011 adventure pala yung sasayan ko

[emgutierrez]

What 2T brand do you use?

I've also been using 2t mixed with diesel for years but on non-crdi engines (i.e. isuzu 4ja1 and 4jb1). No detrimental effects so far...

Not to burst everyone's bubble but...

Just read a 2015 scientific research /study using proper test methods... Everything kasi I read about 2t and diesel mix is on owners forums and mostly user reviews...
2-Stroke Oil In Diesel – A Technical Study

This study was done on a modern crdi engine... Although using same 200:1 ratio... On our thread here it was mentioned to use 400:1 or even 600:1 for crdi engines especially with high pressure European injectors.

Results may change your mind on continuing use of 2t with diesel. Traces of unburned zinc and other minerals eventually will foul up and clog injectors over time.

The study seems very credible considering it was done in a laboratory with controlled testing conditions and conforms to technical/scientific standards including engine dyno). For sure, variables like driving style, traffic conditions, environment/weather etc are eliminated in the study.

Hmmm... Napapaisip din ako tuloy....

P.S. -- the study tested jaso fc 2t but our thread recommends jaso fa and fb which is pure mineral oil unlike jaso fc which has a synthetic content that leaves unburned residues.

Hmmm. I've been using 2T for years pero sa old school 4D56. Sana wala naman bad effect kasi sabi din dito hindi recommend mag lagay ng 2T sa mga CRDI engines.

[odie vti]

Yup me too ... So far so good.... Pag old school diesel parang kahit ano ipainom mong diesel eh ok lang... Hehe

Good thing I still haven't started on our hiace grandia D4D yet. Just been using unioil euro4.

[oj88]

For CRDI engines at least, there's a 50-50 chance that you'll end up with expensive repairs either way. In which case, I think I'll just save my 2T money and do my best to use only a Diesel fuel source I can trust. And yes, don't forget the all-important regimen of regular and preventive maintenance.

My take is that, if Diesel engines were meant to take in 2T oil, it'll probably be in a proper textbook somewhere... but it's not.

Been using this for quite some time. Try it guys! 4d56tdic Pajero MK1. All the feedbacks here are true.

i stopped adding long time ago kasi napansin ko madaling mag-accumulate yung dumi sa element type fuel filter ng sasakyan ko. kung canister type ang fuel filter at hindi masyadong restrictive ang filtering medium ng filter ay ok lang. maganda naman epekto sa lalo sa andar kaya sa ELF trucks ko at mga traktora ko sa bukid pinapalagyan ko pa rin.

Monty,

Anong year at model yung sasakyan mo?

2012, montero gtv. obserbasyon ko lang yan na madaling mag-clogged yung filter. culprit talaga is yung maduming diesel kaya ingat and be picky ng suking gas station.

[odie vti]

Sorry guys... na mention na pala yung article na nabanggit ko sa p.170 of this thread... havent back read lately kasi.... my apologies.

Sana maraming scientific studies pa lumabas... especially in our favor naman...

[kevinworld]

I'm using 2t on my common rail d4d grandia. Noticed nawala yung tugtug ng engine every time I started and shut off the engine. Lubricates talaga. 1:250 ratio. Once a month

Yup, it makes the engine run smoother.

[jaggerx3]

Ang daming klase ng 2T ano ba dapat gamitin?

Yung JASO FB or FC rated sir. Kahit saang manufacturer pa yan basta yun ang rating.

Okay thanks. Try ko sa D4D namin mamaya na Hiace. Pero sa Grand Starex VGT di ko tatry. Mahirap na dun hehe

[pdx]

mga sir,

nasa pg 120+ pa lang ako, and i want to try this sooner...
regular user ako ng phoenix diesel dahil yun ang pinakamalapit samin... does it mix well with the 2t? or should i switch to another gas station??

Isuzu Crosswind nga po pala ang gamit ko...6 mos old pa lang kaya mejo ingat po ako...
pasensya na po kung nasagot na ito sa thread na ito..nasa pg 120 pa lang ako eh..

[xycho_g]

Ako rin di ko natapos magback read and using a isuzu cw. Bago rin yung akin wala pa 1 year. I have tried it. Yung shudder ng engine pag pinapatay yung most noticeable skn. Since bago pa, every other full tank lang ako naglalagay. Di pa naman sobra usok kasi i have EFG and blanked EGR plus i clean the tail pipes once in a while.

I use shell vpower diesel and shell 2t.

Hesitant rin ako before.

Happy with 2T sa Commuter ko. Pag finloor ko gas pedal kaunting white smoke lang nalabas. Unlike pag pure diesel itim talaga
